There’s only one thing that’s as big as the monster that is Pokemon Go right now, and that’s the iPhone 7. We’re still around a month away from it being even announced, let alone released, but the rumors are coming thick and fast and they show no sign of slowing down. And that’s just the way we like it!

Three new rumors and leaks have cropped up over the last couple of days, all with a whiff of legitimacy about them for varying reasons, and all getting us just a little bit more excited for what promises to be a controversial release amongst potential iPhone buyers.

One of the most talked about possibilities for the iPhone 7 is the removal of the headphone jack, with Bloomberg reporting again today that the new handset will lose the port that we currently use for connecting our wired personal audio devices. That’s a rumor that has been circulating for a long, long time now and it’s almost nailed on as being certain that the iPhone 7 will carry a Lightning port and a Lightning port only.

Bloomberg also reports that a dual camera setup will also be in effect. The always-reliable Mark Gurman claims that the larger of the newly announced smartphones will feature two rear-facing shooters in order to allow for better shots. Again, this is something that has been rumored before but the word of Mark Gurman is almost as good as that of Tim Cook given his past record, so we think that’s one rumor we can stand behind.

There is also talk of a new touch-sensitive Home button, rather than the switch-based one that has been used since the iPhone was first released back in 2007.

Another leak has seen new 4K video crop up, which claims to show three iPhone 7 dummy devices, with one being 4.7-inches and the other two both appearing to be 5.5-inch handsets. One of those does not feature the dual camera design we mentioned earlier, suggesting that either there are two larger iPhone 7 handsets launching next month, or one of the dummies in the video was based on a prototype that is no-longer viable. Whatever the reason for the three dummy units shown off in glorious 4K, existing rumors of there being a three-device attack by Apple hold little water for us and I’m more likely to believe that Apple was prototyping two iPhone 7 Plus designs at some point.

Finally, photos of a claimed iPhone 7 logic board have also surfaced, giving us a glimpse of what will be hidden within the new iPhone. Fans of logic boards will notice that the layout is similar to that of previous iPhones, though given the design constraints, thanks to the size and shape of the iPhone 7, which is perhaps unsurprising.

Apple is expected to announce and then release the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus around this time next month, with September traditionally being the month of big iPhone news. The iPhone 7 isn’t expected to be a huge departure from the iPhone 6s, but that likely won’t stop it from selling well. It’s an iPhone, after all.

The only thing I want from the new iPhone is a better screen resolution, about 450ppi booth on 4.7 and 5.5 inch models. If the iPhone 7 would have anything like that, I will buy it!!

It seems you were asleep in the last 6 months. No design change for the iPhone 7. Next 10th year iPhone anniversary may get big design change.

How can they even call it iPhone 7? Will it sell well? I don’t think so. People are bored with the current design imo. Samsung S7 will be a much better choice if this is all Apple has to offer. I hope I’m wrong but all the leaks look really disappointing.

I hope you are right but apparently they are waiting for the 10th anniversary to release something completely new.

Well… the whole “touch sensitive home button” rumor crops up every year, never going to happen.

I just have to ask if you are all idiots. I couldn’t give a care about design the important thing is whats under the hood. I swear they could make the S8 have half the specs and power of its predecessor but if it looks pretty you will come in droves to buy it.

Will it sell well? Of course it will. Think about how many people have an iPhone4, iPhone5 or even an iPhone6 that’s on it’s way out. The battery alone in these things barely last 2 years. So there are literally MILLIONS of people ready for an upgrade, right now.

As for switching to android, that’s just not an option for many people.

“CPU” and screen resolution have nothing to do with each other. Neither does insane amounts of memory. Start looking at the GPU.

JEmlay

The “rumor” you are missing is that Apple wants to switch to a 3 year cycle instead of a 2 year cycle. Now that more and more cell companies in the US are ditching 2 year contracts, this will be more feasible.

JEmlay

Oh, sorry. I didn’t realize you were a jackass. As you were then.

JEmlay

The Plus is WAY too big for me. I gotta admit, I’ll be bummed if there’s a “Pro” version that’s Plus only. Ok, make that jealous. Ah well!

So Android excuse for failing performance is their crappy GPUs ?

JEmlay

“Android” doesn’t have a GPU. It’s an OS. Exactly which phone are you referring to?

The battery rarely lasted 3 hours in those older iPhones, and even my work’s iPhone 6 is bad on battery. I can imagine there would be plenty of people like me that will think “Is spending money on the new iPhone going to be worth it?”

JEmlay

You’re a minority. Battery lasts days for the average person. Besides there’s tons of stuff you can do to kill a phone especially with location services and that includes Android.

3 hours? Seriously? Is that what you’re rolling with?

Stfu bitch

Does your mommy know you’re on the internet?

It won’t be an iPhone 7. It will be called an iPhone 6X. Apple only changes the model number with a new design.
